HINTS ON ROAD-MAkING.
Serious and Very Common Mistakes Made
by County Road Supervisors.

Serious and Very Common Mistakes Made
by County Road Supervisors.
One of the serious mistakes in road
making IS to plow up the side bitches
and throw the material, sods, sand and
manure, which the rains have washed
off the road-bed into them, back into
the center of the driveway. This
stuff-sod, sand and loam-is utterly
destructive of the foundation of the
road. The first rains convert this
loose organic material into a slough of
mud, while hard rain washes it back
into the ditch. In a dry season it be-
comes perfect bed of dust, annoying
to the traveller, destructive to vehicles,
and about as bad as the mud itself.
The surveyor who allows the iniquity
ought to be complained of as an enemy
to society. 1t is surely destructive to
any good road, and it would be better
economy for the town to throw the
money directly into the ditch and let it
lie there,
Another serious and very common
mistake is the neglect to remove the
small, loose, rolling stones which in
dry time are sure to work up to the
surface of many badly constructed
roads. This is so easy and simple a
matter, and can be so rapidly done
with a garden rake, and by cheap and
unskilled labor, that any town is quite
objectionable for neglecting it. Even
very sure-footed horse is liable to
stumble over these rolling stones, and
they make road positively danger
Gus. A town is greatly to blame for
failing to remove them promptly and
often.
Another great mistake is in making
the road-bed far too crowning-that is,
in the form of convex circle, with the
center raised a foot and sometimes
eighteen inches or more, and the cur
Nature at the sides so abrupt as to make
it dangerous to turn out on meeting a
carriage, or, at least, to give the driver
a feeling of insecurity. Even the
county commissioners of one of our
large counties, who, it would seem,
ought to know better, made the speci-
fications for road only twenty feet
wide requiring that the road should
"crownn in the center no less than
eighteen inches, or one and half in
ten, and they could not be reasoned
out of il. See the result. The con-
vexity is so great that the middle of the
road is the only place where carriage
stands upright. The travel all clings
to the middle of the road, wearing one
path for the horse and two ruts for the
wheels, and making the road very I'M
even. A road ought to be formed so
as to induce travel over all parts of it.
No road should ever be allowed so
rough as to require transverse incli-
nation greater than one in twenty,
which for a road-bed twenty feet wide
would give a center six inches higher
than the sides. The best road-maker
in England adopted one in thirty, or
six inches curve for road thirty feet
wide, and MacAdam fixed on one in thir-
ty-six. and sometimes made it one in
sixty. or three inches crown in thir
Ity-foot rosd.-0ld FarBssr's Almanac.

DOINGS AT WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. Is, 1881
The passage of the great Interstate
Commerce bill, which is the result OF a
popular movement beginning ten
years ago marks the past week in con-
gress. There was a good deal OF m
portant legislation beside this, how
ever, such as that giving the agrlcul-
tural department executive Importance
and its chief a seat in the cabinet; and
that extirpating the hierarchy at Salt
Lake City.
1t was expected that the senate would
settle the vexed question OF commerce
by railroads as it did about the hour OF
midnight on Friday, but no one knew
how many more senator's would be
found supporting than opposing the
bill. 1t came triumphantly through by
a vote of forty-three TO fifteen.
Now that the Anti Mormon bill has
been passed by the house, one hears a
good many comments which indicate
! an appreciation of the severity of the
| measure. 1t not only makes polygamy
a felony, but dissolves the %tinancia
| corporations known as the Latter Day
Saints, and the Perpetual Emigration
Fund Company, and practically abol-
ishes all the machinery religious or po'
litical. that is now employed directly Of
indirectly in the maintenance of thu
Mormon church system. The republi
cans pledged themselves to eradicate
polygamy in 1856, more than thirt!
years ago. They held power tor near
ly a quarter of a century and as Nor
monism still fourishes it is left for thu
democrats to perform a duty which thu
republicans neglected or else could no
do. Hon. Randolph Tucker of Virginia
who reported the Anti Mormon bill
held that there was nothing in it tina
could hurt the conscience even OF
Mormon. If he thought there was, h
said he would vote against it.

The action of the democratic caucus
in Indiana, in nominating Judge Davis
Turpie for the senatorship, is said to
have been received at Washington with
surprise and satisfaction. Turpio was
in the senate from January IA, 1868, to
March 8 of that year, serving out the
uneXpired term OF Jesse D. Bright,
who was expelled for treason. Turpie
was then a big maa. Though in the
senate but a few days, he is still re-
membered as having made one OF
the greatest speeches upon the subject
of the continuation of the war ever
made in that body. He was opposed
to the war, and wal about as pronounc-
ed in his views in antagonism to Lin
